Using the right application.
You need SP Flash Tool to install the stock firmware on your device.
Install ROM:
- Install drivers
- Unpack FlashTools, and Click on Flash_tool.exe
- Select "scatter-Loading" and search MT6580_Android_scatter.txt in ROM
- Wait file to be added into Flash Tool
- Select "Download Only" or if upgrade "Firmware upgrade"
- Turn off your phone, remove the battery (if the battery is removable) and replace it after some seconds (and don't turn on the phone).
- Press “Download” button to start
- and connect your phone into the computer via USB data cable.
- The process will start and a red progress bar will appear after color purple, yellow.
- And green circles display
- Finish !
- You can now safely disconnect your phone and turn it on.

Thank you, LS.xD.

You may have the wrong version of CWM recovery installed. You need Tiamat v3.2.0.0 R4c. If you are trying to flash thru Rom manager it may have had you update to v4.0.0.4 which is not compatible with the external sdcard. If this is the case, re-install the correct recovery version, and then redo your backup so that it is on the external sdcard where it can be safe if you need to wipe/factory reset. You can use Rom manger just to reboot into recovery, or df Quick Boot from the market and use that instead.
Good luck!

Rom manager says it is 4.0.0.4 but when in recovery is say CWM recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm or Tiamat v3.2.0.0 R4c ( I don't remember exectly) and the error is the same.
Also, I tried reflash recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.zip from the SD card and get an error.
I really don't have a clue of what to do.
Any help would be welcome.

The problem is that you can't flash anything from the external sdcard with v4.0.0.4. In rom manager, see if you can find"all clockwork recoveries" and find 3.2.0.0. If not, find 3.0.2.8 or 3.0.2.5 and flash one of them, preferably the latest of those I have listed. I think those will at least recognize your sdcard. If you can't do that, you will need to reflash the correct recovery the same way you did when you rooted. Remember, never flash a zip file through adb.
Good luck!
I tried to flash recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img via adb.
I could flash boot sector. Then I reboot into recovery and try to apply zip from card with file update_US-Xoom-WiFi-3.2-HTJ85B-from-HMJ37_stachre_solarnz-boot-img_v05.zip, but there is a NO at the end of the name of the file and I can't go on.
Trying to rename as update.zip and run apply zip from card results in same error:
E: Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
what should I do?
Thank you
possible bad download... download again... also, don't think this would be an update... leave it as originally named, just choose the option to choose which zip file to install from the sd card

It sounds like you are flashing recovery ok, but you keep overwriting it with the stock recovery.
Here is some important information that should help a lot with making your new recovery "stick"and this was taken from the Idiot's guide to flashing...in the Development section, and originally written by publicanimal:
4. Install recovery image (CWM)
Download the recovery image file and save it to your computer
Boot into flash mode with 'adb reboot bootloader'
Install your downloaded recovery image
C:\Documents and Settings\Anders> fastboot flash recovery recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img
Restart the device with 'fastboot reboot'. Timing is essential here, so be alert when the device restarts, or you will have to redo this section
Enter CWM with the following procedure
Once the Motorola logotype is shown, start counting to 3. At 3, press the Volume Down button. This should result in the text 'Android Recovery' in the top left corner. If it does not work, experiment with the timing ...
When 'Android Recovery' is shown press the Volume Up button. This should invoke the CWM recovery menu. If that works, then congratulations for reaching this far .
Here is a potential pitfall. If you are unable to enter CWM *before* the device boots into Honeycomb, then the newly installed recovery image will be overwritten by the system default recovery. If that happens, or if you see "starting fastboot protocol " your timing wasn't right and you need to reflash the recovery image and try it again.
See original post,below for more information.

[Q] OTA modifier

Thank's to this forum I have phone with 16gb memory, fastboot , TWRP and rooted - this is really great, thank you!
There is new update for 6039H - - 010 07p ~55Mb the of size, waiting for installation.
1st - where is this the file? Where "System updates" app is hiding it?
2nd - should we check update.zip somehow before flashing or just modify, flash and see results.?
Thank you.
Sent from my 6039H using Tapatalk
Just found where is ota hidden : /data/data/com.tcl.fota/.fotadownload
You need to have "Show hidden files" enabled in file manager to see/find it.
I tried use ota_modifier.sh get error:
ota_modifier.sh update.zip
The provided file is not a zip file!
then:
file update.zip
update.zip: Java Jar file data (zip)
In my system LXLE 14 witch is actually Ubuntu there is "zip" not a "Zip" witch is expected from script. I had to change this - editing script. One letter - big difference for linux.
Flashing update_modified.zip filed...
"/system/bin/app_process32" has unexpected contents.
E: Error executing updater binary in zip .... [path to my modified zip]

[edit]
If you see this error reason is - root. Need to be fully unrooted!
Now everything went fine. Flashed thru TWRP, rerooted. Whole process takes quiet of time be patient.

"This package is for A0001, this device is bacon." Wiped internal storage, cant flash

"This package is for A0001, this device is bacon." Wiped internal storage, cant flash
Like an idiot, I accidentally wiped internal storage while trying to flash a new ROM, so all my data ( which I dont care about ) and my backup images got deleted. I still have access to TWRP so I thought it wasnt that bad and went ahead installing ROMS as I usually would.
I transferred the zip files from PC to the phone via adb push method and tried to flash
However, I an unable to install any ROM as it gives me an error every time. This is what the error message reads:
Skipping MD5 check : no MD5 file found
This package is for device: A0001; this device is bacon
E: Error executing updater binary in zip ' /sdcard/cm...(name of the rom here).zip '
Error flashing zip ' /sdcard/(nameofrom).zip '
I did quite a bit of research and read on one of the official OnePlus that all the ROMs are signed for the device A0001 but the device itself reads itself as bacon, which is its codename. Since "bacon" != "A0001" the zip installation fails.
Am I stuck with an expensive paperweight here? Please help.
TLDR: Wiped internal storage, No OS, flashing throws up error every time
If you can acces TWRP, just by connecting the OPO to your PC should give you acces to storage. I guess that you are trying to install H2OS, download the fixed version with the updater-script fixed. If it gives you this error with another rom, just download another custom rom and put in on the internal storage or flash the stock OS with fastboot

Yep, inside the rom zip, there is a file called updater-script.
In this file, there is a line checking the phone name.
While most of the roms are using "bacon", H2OS original zip file uses "A0001" instead.
Can you try with any other rom?

Instead of using adb push metod try to flash stock rom (https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oxygenos-2-1-4-for-the-oneplus-one.425544/) and then flash the rom you want.
Good luck!
Note: You will loose twrp, so you have to flash it via fasboot [fastboot flash recovery (recovery name).img]
I'd suggest you to start over with a clean flash of COS13 fastboot factory image. Sounds like you are on a very old base.
Try to reboot TWRP and flash again. Or remove that check string from the updater-script.
download CM11 factory recover tool from my google drive @ https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByfGPjP5zNYSTDZZcXZpLU44Q00 and install drivers and go to fastboot and plug in the phone and run recovery tool to push default factory image then install whatever CM version you want directly
No updater-script file that I can see
Can't find that file!

use usb otg, success each time!
setup on ubuntu
Instructions for install on linux (test on ubuntu)
1- install adb :
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
2- install fastboot :
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot
3- Turn the phone off. Then boot it into fastboot mode by holding volume up + power. The phone will display "fastboot" text indicating that it has successfully entered fastboot mode.
4- test if the phone is detected with the cmd :
Code:
$ fastboot devices
5- unlock bootloader (/!\ it wipe the phone) :
Code:
$ sudo fastboot oem unlock
6- install TWRP :
- go to the path where is the img
Code:
$ cd path/to/twrp/folder/
- rename the image to twrp.img
Code:
$ mv old_name.img twrp.img
- flash the recovery
Code:
$ sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
/!\ Once the flash has completed, Don't use the "Fastboot Reboot" Command Instead Unplug Your phone then Manually turn it off by pressing and holding power button until it switches off. Now to enter your newly installed custom recovery, hold volume down + power. The phone should boot into recovery mode. Now that you have a custom recovery, you may continue to the final step. /!\
7- install custom/official ROM with TWRP :
- Wipe > Swipe to Factory Reset
- Install > browse to the location where you previously copied the ROM zip and select it > Swipe to confirm the installation
- Install GApps using same process as ROM, then reboot. (optionnal: the official OnePlus ROM come with GApps pre-installed)
Possible errors with official ROM :
"This package is for device: A0001; this device is bacon" or "This package is for device: OnePlus; this device is A0001" or other similar
==> go into the ROM zip file, in "/META-INF/com/google/android/" there is an "updater-script" file. Open it, locate the expression ' getprop("ro.build.product") == "A0001" ' and replace the "A0001" by the device name you have. Replace the file in the archive. Note : after that, you can't verify the official MD5 !
- example : "This package is for device: A0001; this device is bacon", the ' getprop("ro.build.product") == "A0001" ' become getprop("ro.build.product") == "bacon" '

Update TWRP Recovery
I know this is an old post, so this is here in case anyone finds it in the future and requires help...
My mate asked me to upgrade his OnePlus (original, codename Bacon) and I received this error when upgrading from LineageOS 14.1 to 15.1.
To resolve, its extremely easy - simply upgrade the TWRP recovery. My mate originally had TWRP 3.1.1.0 installed, but the latest weekly LineageOS 15.1 required v3.2.3.0 installed which resolved the error message "This package is for device: bacon, a1001. this device is ."
Either Vol+ and Power to enter bootloader, or from command line:
adb reboot bootloader (with Android USB debugging turned on. You can test for connection using command "adb devices" and if successful it should show your phone's serial number). You will need to trust the computer's connection on your phone. To get to Android USB Debugging, you need to go Settings -> Developer menu options, and if you can't see that: Settings -> About Phone and tap "Build" 7 times for developer mode to appear.
Once phone goes into bootloader mode, type:
fastboot flash recovery "path:\twrp-x.x.x.x-bacon.img" (obviously path is the directory that the recovery is stored in, and x.x.x.x will be replaced with the version you've just downloaded. At time of writing, v3.2.3.0 is the latest. You can always use "fastboot devices" if you used Vol+ and Power to enter bootloader to ensure you have a valid connection, in USB debugging mode on your phone and correct Android adb drivers installed in Windows.
Wait until it's succeeded, and turn off phone. Now go into recovery and try again - and this time you should be good to go!!!
All the above implies your bootloader is unlocked. If you need to unlock your bootloader, there are plenty of instructions telling you how to do this - but HAVE A BACKUP as unlocking your bootloader will do a factory reset on your phone.
Hope this helps someone
......mmmmmm BACON!!!

Hi
Try downloading your firmware from sammobile.com based on your country code and flash it with Odin while your phone in Download Mode, in Odin, check f.reset time and auto reboot, don't check any thing else.

SAM MOBILES FILE FAILED BUT "Galaxy-Note-3-Neo-SM-N7505-Full-Factory-rom-4.4.2.zip "
The file from sammobile (dot-com) did NOT FIX the issue of my note3 neo sm-n750; but with the old file, i tired before, ( "Galaxy-Note-3-Neo-SM-N7505-Full-Factory-rom-4.4.2.zip" from filehost(dot)com fixed the issue.
Why i failed before with the same file?
Actually i copied the "...full-factory ROM.. .zip" into an sd card and tried to 'install from the external sources' option in phone's recovery.
why?
As you know, the Odin only allow .tar,.md5,.smd .gz, .tgz formats; NOT ZIP file. I thought the recovery program can extract the zip file from the external SD card and do the rest . So i didn't try to extract it manually.
The zip file from sammobile contains only one md5 file. I tried it with odin's AP button and executed but failed with some error messages.
So I extracted "...full-factory ROM.. .zip file" (once i left), and I got AP, BL, CP, CSC files. then I selected and executed each file with ODIN's desired buttons and It gave my SM-N7505 a new life.
Anyway, Thank you very much dear Mr.MigoMujahid for spending time to help me
God Bless you

The file from sammobile (dot-com) did NOT FIX the issue of my note3 neo sm-n750; but with the old file, i tired before, ( "Galaxy-Note-3-Neo-SM-N7505-Full-Factory-rom-4.4.2.zip" from filehost(dot)com fixed the issue.
Why i failed before with the same file?

Hi Mr-Shihab
To flash a zip with recovery, then it has to be a flashable zip, it should be built in a specific way so the recovery can work with it, and the zip you have is a normal compressed files, so it can't be flashed at all with recovery, also note that the zip you downloaded from sammobile might be corruptedly downloaded, because sammobile offer a clean roms, anyway, you can also use samsung-firmware.org, it's a trusted site as well.
Ps: that md5 file you got works the same as the 4 files you downloaded after.
God bless you too
Had the same issue with a note 3 neo once, completely bricked it and couldn't flash stock firmware. Went to odin recovery mode as it is called (or something like that) and just put in some information found once you take the battery out and it did its thing and bam it is working.

There is Odin download Mode and there is Recovery Mode!!, which one do you mean?! ?
Also Recovery Mode is to flash files or wipe, and Odin Download mode is to flash files with Odin, how did you input anything there?!!

There is a recovery mode (not the one where you flash your roms and replace with twrp) in kies (my bad for not saying that) that reflashes the whole phone, you could literally erase the recovery or the kernel and you'd still be able to recover it which you can check out here
